Valentin Jacquemin commented on MWAR-248:
-----------------------------------------
Starting with an empty war project containing only the web.xml file I still get
the warning.

[WARNING] Warning: selected war files include a WEB-INF/web.xml which will be ig
nored
(webxml attribute is missing from war task, or ignoreWebxml attribute is specifi
ed as 'true')
To get rid of the warning I had to modify the pom to include this unintuitive
addition:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<packagingExcludes>WEB-INF/web.xml</packagingExcludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
> Plugin warns about missing webxml attribute even if one exists

> I am attaching a debug log that clearly demonstrates how the WAR plugin warns
> about a missing webxml attribute which exists. I am attempting to let the
> plugin know that the web.xml file it is encountering is the same one
> specified by the webxml attribute.
> My pom file contains:
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.1.1</version>
> <configuration>
> <failOnMissingWebXml>true</failOnMissingWebXml>
> <webXml>src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml</webXml>
> </configuration>
